The oyster tongers in most instances
are now doing good business. One of
the tongers told us few days since that
boat with three men could catch in good
localities from fifty to sixty bushels a
day, and in extra good places as much as
seventy-five bushels These command
regularly 80 cents bushel and in case of
brisk demand as much as go cents. So at
the smallest catch and lowest price it will
yield the men $4 90 day. Our oyster
houses are now all busy, so all that are
caught find ready sale.
